| Reverse description | Tyche seated left upon a throne, holding in her right hand a rudder set upon a bearded male head facing left, symbolising the city's dominion over the sea, and a cornucopia in her left hand. The composition reflects the civic iconography typical of Pontic provincial coinage of the Severan period. The Greek legend appears around the field, with the date ϹΜΗ (year 248 of the Pontic era) incorporated into the inscription. |
